His footsteps carried weight in each foot giving the sound of a charging bull rather than a man running forward, he jumped in the air while twirling his cudgel above his head and then slammed it down once he successfully switched the way he was holding it to his left arm leading his strikes instead, it swished through the air in a curled arc toward what he assumed as the weaker of the two Bing Ai.
Bing Ai caught off guard and took rapid step backs while raising her sword into the air to stop it if the stick really did catch her. The massive head of the cudgel slammed itself into the ground making a huge dent in the courtyard, Dai suddenly wrapped only a single arm on the cudgel and twirled to the side and behind his foe while lowering his head a silver object passing his head by centimeters.
He lifted his leg and looked at the back of the second noble who was already attempting to swing behind himself to strike him with the saber, he smiled slightly and then sent a straight kick into the back of his adversary which sent them tumbling forward the sword being stopped in rotation.
He was already making his next move as soon as his foot touched the ground he spun while placing the cudgel on the back of his neck, his hands keeping it in place. His head looked toward his target first and then he continued spinning toward Su Ming who was already attempting to get up.
He made his cudgel maneuver down low and then he slammed the shaft of the cudgel into the chest of the standing man once he stopped spinning, however a similar situation happened again his cudgel was carried up and to the side of Bing Ai's leg giving her ample opportunity to deliver a follow up strike.
Seeing his cudgel being placed to the side he wrapped an arm around it while pulling himself back, Bing Ai ran after him while raising her saber to her chest a thrust readied for Dai. Dai saw this and stopped moving forward waiting for her thrust.
She let her sword fly through the air directed at Dai's shoulder instead of anything vital, 'how sweet.' he moved his foot back and to the side displacing his body making the sword pass his chest and arm cutting through thin air, he continued the movement into a spin with his cudgel still supported in only one arm he slammed the shaft part into her back which blew her forward.
He turned around and delivered a swift thrust aimed at the vulnerable Bing Ai, well almost vulnerable she pushed her self to the side as if she sense the incoming thrust he pulled it back and then delivered another thrust aimed at her head she used the sharp part of her blade and slammed it into the cudgel negating it to the side.
He felt the forceful impact of the cudgel rotating and decided to go with the flow, considering how someone should be getting up by now… he continued the movement to a spin to the side, he felt harsh impact accompanied by the grunt of Su Ming.
Su Ming had caught the sudden cudgel attack with his sword directly which sent the power running straight into his arms, he pushed through it and swung his sword down which sent the cudgel which was only being used with one hand to the side quite easily.
He continued and charged forward, he did a cut with the blade first .Dai rotated his hips and dodged the strike which he immediately regretted as he felt something touch his gut and before he knew it was he was on the ground.
He let go of his cudgel as a result, he looked at what happened and saw that Su Ming's foot slowly touching the ground behind him.
Su Ming continued forward and did a horizontal cut aimed at his head, he slipped down to the side causing the swing to catch nothing but air he used his core strength and lifted his legs.
However, before he could do anything Su MIng had already gotten control of his sword and attempted a vertical cut down this time aimed at the torso. Dai kicked his legs straightly while rolling to the side his leg caught Su Ming's torso which made his swing inaccurate causing it to go to the side.
Dai then quickly grabbed his cudgel and thrusted it forward, which was stopped easily by Su Ming who fended against it with a straight parry by simply keeping his sword in front of him the cudgel was forced to slide to the side at an incline. Dai used the opportunity to attempt to get off the ground.
HIs adversary however didn't want him off the ground and used his seperate arm to attempt to push Dai back on the ground, Dai however used his cudgel and disengaged with his sword to strike his gut forcing him again to protect himself against another strike while Dai got up from the ground.
Once off the ground, Su Ming delivered a cut while rotating his torso completely. Dai fended it off with a simple static block he saw Ming continue to rotate his torso and lift his leg he was about to deliver a simple thrust but thought against it and ducked under his kick while preparing a thrust aimed at Su Ming's face.
Su Ming fended against the thrust by slamming the cudgel down to the side again, Dai gripped the cudgel with two hands and used it as support to perform a flying kick which was ducked under by Su Ming sending him directly behind Ming.
He twisted his torso while shifting the position of his hands on the cudgel to perform a backward thrust, Su ming had already expected this and had delivered a cut behind himself before his front caught up with him stopping the thrust but this time it didn't go to the side as it was supported with two hands by Dai.
Dai swiftly rotated his torso and took a step to the side delivering a horizontal strike with the more stronger part of his cudgel the head, a smile was blazed on Dai's face. The two of them were getting more serious in the fight.
Su Ming chose to duck under the strike and attempt to tackle Dai to the floor instead the two still relatively close, Dai couldn't stop the tackle so he dropped the cudgel while placing both hands around the head of Su Ming.
He jumped up helping Su Ming taking him to the ground but while wrapping his legs around Su Ming's upper torso, the takedown to the ground knocked the wind out of him for a momentary amount of time but he kept pulling Su Ming to his chest.
Su Ming grabbed his saber and attempted to deliver a thrust into his side, Dai however reacted quickly and trapped both of Su Ming's arms while shooting his legs out from beneath Su Ming who really didn't attempt to trap him with his weight.
He put weight on both of his arms and straddled the back of Su Ming, Su Ming was flailing about attempting to get him off his back.
Dai responded by moving his weight again wrapping his legs around the torso of Su Ming while wrapping his arm under the chin of Su Ming.
With full control he pulled and placed Su Ming in a straight chokehold, a struggle for control was heard.
Dai breathed rapidly clearly exhausted from the previous form of physical exertion while Su Ming attempted to savior each breath of his.
He beat against the arms of Zu Dai attempting to overcome the with shear strength but the more energy he used the more he felt sleepier.
Dai was content with staying in this position and applied more pressure onto the throat, this went on for a few more seconds until Su Ming was exhausted.
And a few more second until he stopped moving, knocked out.
